    Dear Les,
    Thank you for replying,
    You advised to consider /var on a seperate disk,but
    what about others ?
    I assume that we have to consider at least 60G for
    websites and probably we are going to place them in
    /www. What is your idea ? is it better to consider a
    seperate partition for that ? our I can implement it
    under the / ?
    in this case we will have :
    / ~= 78G (HDA)
    Swap ~= 2G (HDA)
    Boot = 200MB (HDA)
    /var = 10G (HDB)
    What is your suggestion ?
